In the words of the Qur’an God describes those, “...WHO GLADLY PURSUED THE LIFE OF LUXURY THEY WERE GIVEN” and thus ignore their responsibilities. (Surah Hud, 116)

It is impossible for people of virtue and good conscience and who fear God to abandon their responsibilities and ignore the sufferings of Muslims all over the world, even though they see them perfectly clearly, and to devote themselves solely to their own interests and banal worldly gain. God will hold people who run away from their responsibilities and leave them to others, even though they know full well what they should do, in the hereafter.

For that reason, people must not only take action themselves in such a situation, but must also call on other Muslims to join together, spread moral virtues across the world and strive to bring oppression to an end. God tells us in the Qur’an that proper moral values require us to "... spur on the muminun..." (Surat an-Nisa, 84).
